Bot to automatically like your friends' tweets, and notify you on your Slack channel.

• You are like me. You don't have time to check social media and you want to give attention to someone.
• You are in a relationship. Your girlfriend is constantly nagging you for not being the first-one to like her tweets.

This script runs twitter API and checks for any new tweets for a paticular user_id in last 15 minutes. If a new a tweet is found it likes the tweet and sends a notification to your configured Slack channel using Slack Webhooks.

• git clone https://github.com/alianjum0/tweet-like-bot
• npm install
• create a .env file (you must set USER_ID (Self user id), FRIEND_USER_ID (Friend user id) from TweeterId,CONSUMER_KEY,CONSUMER_SECRET, ACCESS_TOKEN, ACCESS_SECRET, CHECK_MINUTESandSLACK_WEBHOOK_URL` from Slack Webhooks ) as shown in file .env.example This would assure that your keys are secured and index.js file is untouched.
• npm start (run the app, and like all the recent tweets (test) and send slack webhook notification)
